This curriculum was developed through a partnership between Texas AgriLife Extension Service and Texas FFA. Quality Counts is a comprehensive program for all 4-H and FFA members in Texas who are involved in the youth livestock program. Texas has the largest number of 4-H and FFA livestock projects in the nation. “Quality Counts” is designed to teach young people the importance of displaying good character in carrying out livestock projects and in every aspect of their lives. This curriculum will also help youth learn the importance of using proper livestock management practices so that food quality and safety are preserved.
